Dartsnieuws:
Grand Slam of Darts van ITV naar Sky. Er zou sprake zijn van dat dan BDO spelers eruit gegooid zouden worden maar daar is geen sprake van. Jan Dekker zal dus meedoen.

Komend weekend begint het darten in Halle. Barney zal ook weer van de partij zijn die heeft sinds maart geen vloertoernooi meer gegooid. Persoonlijk denk ik dat dat alleen maar een pre is om meer wedstrijdritme te krijgen.

Uitzendingen premier league zijn op de vrijdagavond tussen 22:50 en 0:00. De finaleavond(11 mei) zal wel live worden uitgezonden.
Oh en Hansie Hansie zou evt 'mr darts' moeten worden

Dutch open komt weekend . Nope ik ga niet.

Pro Tour evenement in Halle. Eerste echte toernooi na het WK.

Goede rentree van Barney. Daarnaast een mooie start van Henderson bij de PDC en vd Voort doet ook goede zaken ondanks dat hij niet wint.

[..]

Goede rentree omdat 'ie met 6-3 van Klaasen wint? En vervolgens een leg pakt tegen Whitlock?

Hij heeft toch vier wedstrijden gewonnen. Goed voor het wedstrijdritme, laten we positief zijn .

========================================================

Er is nog nieuws over Holland vs The rest

quote:

Het hoge woord is eruit: Holland vs The Rest of the World komt er maar gaat vanaf nu RTL7 International Masters heten. Eerder deze maand gaf een medewerker van RTL al te kennen dat RTL7 het voornemen had om een groot live televisie toernooi in Nederland op te zetten, maar dat dit niet op de door Barry Hearn genoemde data zou zijn maar later in het jaar. Op dat moment was er ook nog geen locatie en format bekend. Afgelopen week zijn de definitieve speeldata en locatie bekend gemaakt door het duo Nieuwlaat & Maijer tijdens de uitzending van de Premier League of Darts bij de live stream van RTL7. Het toernooi zal op vrijdag 18, zaterdag 19 en zondag 20 maart gehouden worden in Hotel Zuiderduin in Egmond aan zee. De finale zal op maandag 21 maart worden gespeeld. Pikant detail is dat op dezelfde data (zaterdag en zondag) de wereldtop van de BDO aanwezig zal zijn bij het Marixflex Open in Oud Gastel waar met de nieuwe opzet meteen een ticket verdiend kan worden voor de Zuiderduin Masters dat in december op dezelfde locatie wordt gespeeld. Hiermee lijkt het erop dat Hotel Zuiderduin te Egmond aan zee op dit moment het Nederlandse ´Home of Darts´ is.

Via de berichtgeving op Twitter is ook het format van het toernooi onder voorbehoud bekend geworden. De beste 6 spelers van de Order of Merit zullen de strijd aanbinden met de beste 6 Nederlandse spelers op de Order of Merit. Er zal gespeeld worden in 4 poules met daarin steeds 3 spelers en de Nederlanders spelen tegen elkaar. Met de opzet van dit format wordt het voor de Nederlandse dartliefhebber zeker de moeite waard gemaakt om een bezoek te brengen aan de RTL7 International Masters want er zal dan altijd een Nederlander in de finale terecht komen. Overigens is het nog niet bekend wat de prijzen van de toegangskaarten zullen zijn. Zodra er meer informatie bekend is over het toernooi, zoals de aanvangstijden, het speelschema en de start van de kaartverkoop, zal Dartfreakz met meer informatie komen.

Deelnemers Nr 1 t/m 6 Order of Merit:

Phil Taylor
Adrian Lewis
Gary Anderson

Simon Whitlock

quote:

NULAND - Co Stompé deed zaterdagmiddag van zich spreken toen hij zijn tegenstander Steve Farmer voortijdig feliciteerde.
Bij het Players Championship van de PDC in Nuland stoorde Stompé zich zo aan de vertragingstactiek van zijn opponent dat hij het na twee legs voor gezien hield in de 1/16de finale. 'Ik vond zijn gedrag niet van respect getuigen richting mij en dan stop ik ermee', aldus de Amsterdammer, die vanwege die actie vermoedelijk zijn prijzengeld van 400 pond moet inleveren.

Gary Anderson won de finale van het toernooi van Wes Newton. Simon Whitlock baarde opzien met een ninedarter. Michael van Gerwen uit Boxtel kwam tot de laatste acht.

Barney vloog er in R2 uit. Hij verloor van Henderson met 6-2. Jelle Klaasen was in R3 klaar. Hij verloor met 6-4 van Ronnie Baxter

[Darts] European Championships 2011

De Grand Slam of Darts krijgt vorm

THE qualification criteria for the 2011 Grand Slam of Darts has been confirmed, with John Part, Ted Hankey, Co Stompe and Barrie Bates invited to compete in Wolverhampton in November.

The £400,000 tournament, to be held from November 12-20 at the Wolverhampton Civic Hall, features the finalists from major darts tournaments over a two-year period.

Won last year by Scott Waites, who succeeded three-time winner Phil Taylor, the event will be screened live on Sky Sports this November across nine days.

This year's qualifiers will include the finalists from the PDC World Cup of Darts, which was held for the first time last December and saw Holland defeat Wales in the decider, as well as the previous five Ladbrokes.com World Darts Champions and Lakeside Champions.

The decision means that 2008 PDC World Champion John Part and 2009 Lakeside Champion Ted Hankey will return to the Grand Slam, with Holland's Co Stompe and Wales' Barrie Bates also invited to compete in Wolverhampton.

Lakeside Championship finalist Dean Winstanley and semi-finalist Jan Dekker will be invited to make their Grand Slam of Darts debuts following their success in January.

The finalists from the forthcoming World Grand Prix, to be held in October in Dublin, and Championship League Darts, the £200,000 internet-streamed event being held throughout September and October, will also be invited to compete, alongside the finalists from the Grand Slam of Darts Wildcard Qualifier on November 4.

The Wildcard Qualifier will be open to ANY darts player and played on Friday November 4 at the K2 Centre in Crawley. Entry will be available in the near future.

Alongside the finalists from the Wildcard Qualifier, the finalists of the PDC Unicorn World Youth Championship, which will be held earlier on November 4, will also qualify for the Grand Slam of Darts.

In the event that the finalists from the World Grand Prix and Championship League Darts have already qualified, the remaining four places in the field will be allocated as follows (based on rankings at November 2):
1 - Highest placed non-qualified player on the main PDC Order of Merit
2 - Highest placed non-qualified player on the Players Championship Order of Merit
3 - Highest placed non-qualified player on the European Order of Merit
4 - Third-placed play-off winner at the Wildcard Qualifier

Should one of the World Youth Championship finalists have previously qualified, then an additional place would be made available to a further player from the Wildcard Qualifier.

Raymond van Barneveld pakt zijn eerste individuele titel in 3,5 jaar

quote:

RAYMOND VAN BARNEVELD won his first Players Championship for over three years with a 6-2 defeat of John Part in the final of Saturday's tournament at the Moorways Centre in Debry.

The Dutch ace claimed the £6,000 title and his first ranking win since April 2008 in the Open Holland Masters with the success, which saw him make a winning return from a summer break in Spain.

Van Barneveld was pushed all the way to an 11th leg in three of his matches, but punishing Jamie Caven for misses in their second round contest, took out 106 to defeat Co Stompe and then edged out Steve Farmer in the quarter-finals.

He also defeated Adrian Bolitho and Brendan Dolan during the event, and a 6-4 win over Paul Nicholson in the semi-finals set up a tasty final against three-time World Champion Part.

Van Barneveld broke in the opening leg of the final and, after Part had levelled, took out a 13-darter to win the third and a brilliant 126 finish on the bull for the fourth - despite the Canadian hitting two 180s in the leg.

Part hit double 16 to take the fifth, but van Barneveld restored his two-leg advantage with a 12-darter, traded 180s with his opponent before landing a key double four to lead 5-2 and then sealed victory in style with a 156 finish.

Part was seeking to win a Players Championship for a second successive weekend - and his fourth event of the year - but had to settle for the £3,000 runner-up prize.

He had produced a moment of magic to win his semi-final against Simon Whitlock, taking out 126 on the bull for a 12-darter with the Australian sat on 45.

Part also overcame Gary Anderson 6-3 in the quarter-finals, and defeated Chris Thompson, Steve Brown - with a whitewash - and Michael Smith during the event.

Nicholson's semi-final appearance was his best display since a victory in Barnsley in June, while Whitlock was defeated in the last four for the third time in the last five Players Championships.

Anderson's run to the quarter-finals included a stunning whitewash win over Mark Dudbridge in the last 16, in which he used just 73 darts in picking up the 6-0 win with legs of 12, 11, 11, 13, 12 and 14 darts for a 123.5 average.

Farmer defeated in-form Wes Newton in the last 16 with a 6-5 triumph after the number one seed missed two match darts, while Mark Walsh came from 5-1 down to see off John Henderson in his run to the fourth round.

Sunday sees a second £35,000 Players Championship being held at the Moorways Centre in Derby, as players continue to battle for qualifying places in next month's World Grand Prix in Dublin.

The former BBC darts commentator Sid Waddell has been diagnosed with bowel cancer.

The 71-year old, whose voice has become synonymous with the sport, left the BBC in 1994 to broadcast for Sky Sports.

Waddell thanked fans for their best wishes via Twitter, saying "Bowel cancer's not a barrel of laughs so I'll be switching off from Twitter until things get better."

The Cambridge graduate is also a published author and screenwriter.


"He's not just an underdog, he's an underpuppy." [Before Keith Dellar's world title triumph in 1983]
Northumberland-born Waddell is well-loved for his colourful and excitable commentary style, with his best-known lines including "There's only one word for it - 'magic darts"'.

He also noted, while watching Eric Bristow become world champion: "When Alexander of Macedonia was 33, he cried salt tears because there were no more worlds to conquer... Bristow's only 27."

A statement from his manager Dick Allix read: "Following recent tests, Sid has unfortunately been diagnosed with bowel cancer. He is now undergoing treatment and will, regretfully, be unable to undertake any professional engagements for the time being.

"As treatment progresses, I will issue further statements. I would ask that everyone respects his privacy at this time."

Professional Darts Corporation chairman Barry Hearn said: "Sid is a hugely popular character throughout the sport of darts and I'm sure I speak on behalf of the PDC, our players and fans in wishing him a speedy and successful recovery.

"Our thoughts will be with him and his family as he begins his treatment."

Waddell, who began commentating on darts in 1978, was inducted in to the PDC Hall of Fame in 2008.

Outside of his commentary work, he has had 11 books published and wrote the sport-based BBC children's programmes Jossy's Giants and Sloggers, receiving a Screenwriter's Guild nomination for best scriptwriter for the latter.
